Has anyone ever bought something from Frontgate before? (”Outfitting America’s Finest Homes”). I haven’t, and some of their stuff looks cute and innovative. I get the feeling it’s cute and innovative in the same way as Sharper Image: Looks awesome in the catalog, turns out to be made of hollow metallic finished ABS plastic and breaks after five uses.

Sphere: Related ContentI got up at the crack of whenever my busted ass cat started hopping on my face to remind me that his food bowl was only 3/4 full and “Hey isn’t it time you were up paying attention to me.” Purpose: Move clothes from washer to dryer. ETA: 60 minutes. Ready to go to work now, went to dryer to discover it shut itself down about 3 minutes into cycle. Cancel/Abort/Retry/Cut a bitch?
Perfect way to start the day

Sphere: Related ContentThe couple started SwapSF a few years ago as a way to poach their friends’ unwanted apparel. “I had this friend who owned like a million pairs of limited-edition sneakers that he never wore,” Lewis said. “The swap idea started as a way for me to get my hands on some of them.” So Hernandez and Lewis, who have been throwing events since they met at a party five years ago, did what came naturally: they drew up a flyer, bought a bunch of cheap beer and pizza, and invited their friends to get down.
The idea has taken off, as I witnessed Sept. 22 when I threw a few shirts, a pair of pants, and some old hats in a bag and pedaled down to Bryant and 18th Street to volunteer at their recent event, the Most Hyperbolically Stupendous Clothing Swap Ever. It was to be a win-win situation: a little time in exchange for first dibs at free clothes. I arrived at CELLspace at 11 a.m. to find a DJ spinning downtempo hip-hop, a handful of kids sorting through bags, and Hernandez, who greeted me with a smile, a name badge, and a beer. I’d envisioned spending a leisurely afternoon sipping beer provided by Trumer Pilsner (the event sponsor) with about a hundred other scavengers, and the day seemed to be turning out that way.

* Not watched, any kind of pot. I remodeled my kitchen a few years ago, and it was a massive joist to joist job, with a new heated floor, ceiling, walls, and cabinets. There wasn’t really much money afterwards to get a new stove, and boy does that suck. My ancient gas stove will only get a large pot of water to a tiny boil. So stupid.

On the other, this could really really whack out the flavor of the neighborhood. How will The Hill handle it?

Today I got the bug up my butt to move all my computer stuff from my house to my basement. I like the new setup (despite having to walk outside, in the rain, to get to it).
A few weeks ago I installed a plugin that shows what I was writing about this day of last year. I was highly amused to see…
New music workstation is a post I wrote talking about how excited I was to move all my stuff around to be more productive yadda yadda.
So it lasted *exactly* one year.
